A leading LGBT advocacy group in Ghana that has put a spotlight on what it calls the “worst anti-LGBTQ bill ever” is seeking donations from LGBTQ rights supporters worldwide in order to continue its work. For months, Rightify Ghana has been publicizing and opposing the efforts of the nation’s anti-LGBTQ coalition to pass a repressive bill titled the “Proper Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Bill.” The bill would expand Ghana’s existing laws that criminalize gay sex, by criminalizing a range of other activities associated with LGBTQ people. It would prohibit public displays of same-sex affection, distribution of any material considered pro-LGBTQ, advocacy for LGBTQ rights, and same-sex weddings. It would require citizens to report LGBTQ rights advocacy and homosexual activity to police or other authorities, essentially criminalizing anyone who is friends or family, or even associates with queer people. The bill also encourages the use of so-called “conversion therapy,” a pseudo-scientific treatment that some claim to be able to make a gay person straight, but which has been denounced as an ineffective and abusive practice by most reputable medical associations. Rightify Ghana is a not-for-profit organisation founded in 2020 to help raise awareness of LGBTQI+ issues and empower LGBTQI+ community members in Ghana.
